Ham and Red Pepper Quiche

Once I discovered rice crusts, quiches became a favorite, easy dish. I always try to cook the rice ahead. If you didn't, spread it on a plate to cool for 5 minutes before mixing in the egg and cheese. Feel free to use pastry if you like a more traditional pie. Add any leftover asparagus....

Total time: 60 minutesThe rice makes a lovely crust, much healthier than the traditional pastry... and easier too, especially if you cook the rice earlier.
